1, (C) Emboff delivered reftel message to Liz Keogh of the
DFA's Latin American Division. Keogh informed emboff that,
the while the GOI is not expecting a change regarding the
blanket suspension of Title III, the GOI had heard from other
EU member states that a decision to suspend Title III on a
country by country basis had already been made. Keogh
thanked emboff for clearing up the confusion. She added that
the GOI hopes the blanket suspension will be renewed for
another year, as it plays an important role in fostering
US/EU cooperation on Cuba.
